Humorist's Book Printed in Braille

Three years ago, Arthur H. Ort- : meyer, who has offices at 517-520 | Occidental Bldg. began to think

up and write down couplets, for his own amusement.

They came to the attention of |

many persons through occasional | publication in Indianapolis news- |

papers and some people in London, England, wrote and asked for

| permission to include one of them |

edition, published by the WPA, under the title of “Life Lines of Wit and Humor.” This book will be mailed, free of charge, to any blind person in { the United States who asks for it.

{ The person may keep the book 30 4

days and return it, postage free.

Mr. Ortmeyer regards this hobby | as a pleasant diversion and hopes the little couplets will bring some |

pleasure to blind “readers.”

BRITISH WAR AID

NEEDS HURRIED

Lend-Lease Agency Clears Urgent Requests in 24 Hours, Official Says.

WASHINGTON, April 25 (U. P). —The new lend-lease agency is geared to clear urgent British waraid requests within 24 hours after they are presented, an authoritative source said today. The Army and Navy have set up “open accounts” covering existine materials from which lend-leas: officials can meet immediate British | needs without first getting clearance | from the War or Navy Departments.

This, an official revealed, is the =

way urgent requests are handled: A requisition signed by responsible British purchasingr officials is | presented to the lend-lease agency. { The requisition form states the specific material needed and when and to what American port it must be

Lend-lease officials study the request immediately to determine whether it is in order. Then, it is passed on to certain Army and Navy officers who administer the “open accounts.” H, for example, a requisition calls for certain type artillery shells, the Army liaison officer contacts the | arsenal having them in stock and orders immediate delivery to a

The official said that major re-

Britain will tend to taper off. Many | quisitions, such as those for ships,

are invariably cleared throuth President Roosevelt. If the President approves, he issues a directive to the proper government department or agency to make the necessary transfer to the British. Many Requests Cleared A large number of urgent requests from the British have heen cleared to date, the official said. He | declined, however, to say what they involved except that individually they were not large. In the case of requests from the British for material now on production lines, he explained, the President issues directives specifying the quantities to be delivered to | the British and the dates. | Major British requests which require the placing of orders also must | be approved by the Office of Production Management. This must be { done to fit the war-aid requirements into the general defense production scheme.
